  8. I would like to have tennis courts next to my house๐Ÿธ
    The cartoon of the two kangaroos made me laugh ๐Ÿ˜Š and meat with apple sauce is very good. I had that dish at lunch several times.

  24. The Spider Lilies are amazing! And how cool to spend time with kangaroos. I bet that was so much fun. The Air BNB cartoon was hilarious. Thanks for the giggle.

  25. Super nice photos you shared again but that staircase did catch my attention because that was really beautiful. And also the photos from 1992 . That a lovely memory. Wish you a lovely week. Grretings from the Netherlands.

    ReplyDelete
  26. That staircase is great! Thanks for coming by -- I'm behind on comments. As always, every photo is a gem!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I enjoyed the older shots and love the cartoon!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Gorgeous photo of the spider lily. I'll be on the lookout for it next time I'm in a garden. Is that Iberico pork belly from Spain?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Not sure I'd want to get that close to a kangaroo - I hear they can deliver quite a powerful kick! And those stairs - fascinating. A great gallimaufry.
    Thanks for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2023/06/another-visit-to-cedar-creek-gallery.html

  30. That is a neat picture of the little one tucked in his mama's belly. When Jess traveled to Australia, she saw lots of them. They are co cute. The pork dish looks really good. And the stair mural is cool. You have traveled to many places and experienced many interesting things.

    Have a beautiful week.

  33. You are braver than me. I don't know if I would be able to hug a Kangaroo! :-) Also, the pork belly with apple sauce looks amazing... YUM!

    ReplyDelete
  34. The kangaroos are so cute! I would love to visit Australia one day.

  35. Me enamore de los canguros y me dio ganas de la pancenta. Te mando un beso.

  36. love the photos. We have quite a few Air B&B near us - it gets a little annoying when partiers rent it out for the weekend forgetting people don't want to hear loud laughter until 4 in the morning. This one house across the road from us has the loudest women laughing and cackling ...ugh...I keep thinking i will take my car and park it over there with the stereo blasting at 6 in the morning when they finally are asleep. lol

  37. Your Spider Lily is quite different from our Spider Lily. What we call Spider Lily is Higanbana or Spider Amaryllis. I’m so impressed with the Koi mural stairway.

  43. That spider lily is beautiful! We would love to have those instead of our plain lilies. Are the coy stairs at an aquarium? What a cool idea.

    ReplyDelete

  49. It's always interesting, the photographic choices you combine in a post. The Koi steps look amazing when approaching. I finally looked up pork belly to see what it really is in a meal. Your photo makes it look delicious. Spider lilies are so exotic, and the Down Under photo is precious. Enjoyed your gallimaufry of subjects.

  54. What an interesting flower (the spider lily).
    I got a chuckle out of your photo watching the workers resurface the tennis court from your balcony, because for the last couple of days I've been watching workers resurface our parking lot from mine.
